Problems solved by technology

[0007] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for configuring a communication protocol, a wireless communication device, and a household appliance to solve the problem of realizing wireless communication between multiple protocols through software compatible with multiple protocols in the prior art. Running the protocols of two competing customers at the same time, as well as the technical problems that cause the increase of chip resources and cost, realizes the dynamic configuration of the wireless communication protocol in the wireless communication device, and adopts the method of partition loading to realize multiple The wireless communication between protocols can ensure that at the same time, the bootloader only loads one target wireless communication protocol to run, which can reduce the requirements on chip resources, thereby reducing production costs, and can avoid running two competing wireless communication protocols at the same time. Client's Agreement Circumstances Occurs

[0043] It should be noted that the wireless communication device belongs to the transmission layer of the Internet of Things. Its function is to convert the serial port or TTL level into an embedded modu...

Embodiment 2

[0065] Figure 4 It is a schematic flowchart of a communication protocol configuration method provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention.

[0066] Such as Figure 4 As shown, the configuration method of the communication protocol may also include the following steps:

[0067] Step 201 , when it is detected that the household appliance is powered on, the bootloader in the SoC module reads the model or protocol standard parameters for the household appliance during the startup of the bootloader.

[0068] For the execution process of step 201, reference may be made to the execution process of step 101 in the foregoing embodiment, and details are not described here.

[0069] Step 202, judge whether there is a wireless communication protocol corresponding to the model or protocol standard parameter in the multiple wireless communication protocols stored corresponding to the multiple protocol partitions, if yes, perform step 203, if not, perform step 204.

[0070] In the e...

Embodiment 3

[0087] Figure 5 It is a schematic structural diagram of a wireless communication device provided in Embodiment 3 of the present application.

[0088] Such as Figure 5 As shown, the wireless communication device 100 is applied to household appliances, and the wireless communication device 100 includes a system-on-chip module 110 and a flash memory module 120, wherein,

[0089] The flash memory module 120 has multiple protocol partitions 121, and each protocol partition 121 corresponds to store a wireless communication protocol that can run independently.

[0090] The SoC module 110 includes a boot program 111 and a processor 112, and the processor 112 is used for:

[0091] When it is detected that the household appliance is powered on and started, the model or protocol standard parameters for the household appliance are read through the boot program 111 during the startup process of the boot program 111 .

[0092] According to the model of the household appliance or the pr...

Abstract

A method for configuring a communication protocol, a wireless communication device, and a home appliance is provided, wherein the method includes a model or protocol standard parameter for the home appliance is read when a power-on start of the home appliance is monitored; according to the standard parameters of the model or protocol of the household appliance, the target wireless communication protocol to be configured for the wireless communication device is determined; address information of a target protocol partition corresponding to a storage target wireless communication protocol is determined from a plurality of protocol partitions; According to the address information of the target protocol partition, the target wireless communication protocol stored in the target protocol partition is loaded. , The technical problems of high software coupling, high chip resource and high cost in the prior art are solved, the dynamic configuration of wireless communication protocol in wirelesscommunication device is achieved, ensuring that at the same time, the boot program only loads a target wireless communication protocol to run, reducing the requirements of chip resource, reducing theproduction cost, and reducing the technical effect of software coupling.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of communication, and in particular to a method for configuring a communication protocol, a wireless communication device and a household appliance. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of Internet technology and household appliances, more and more intelligent household appliances have emerged. In order to realize a modern smart home, more and more smart home appliances have built-in wireless communication devices, so that smart home appliances can be connected to the Internet of Things through their own wireless communication devices. However, there are more and more types of communication protocols in smart home appliances, and in general industries, wireless communication between multiple protocols is usually realized through software compatibility with multiple protocols. [0003] However, the inventors of the present application have found that the above-mentioned technolo...
